Disable AAD Connect

Hi,

We have few companies connected (sperate AD forests /AAD Connect) to our tenant. And we want to disable AAD connect (Convert synced users to Cloud only users) from one of these companies while other companies still able to sync their users from their separate AD forests (via AAD connect in each forest).

What is the recommended way to approach this?

Thanks

If there exist mailboxes and Exchange server for them, you could follow this article to decommission on-premises Exchange server and local AD that you want.

If there only exist local AD without Exchange on-premises, it seems that you could stop AAD Connect directly (I would suggest you double check with AAD team):

 Set-MsolDirSyncEnabled -EnableDirSync $false

Hi Kyle,

Thanks for your reply.

If we turn off directory synchronization, it would effect for all other companies right? We just need to stop it for one company (which is connected to out tenant) who doesn't need directory synchronization anymore.

Thanks.

I think after stop sync and remove the AAD Connect that you want from local AD, you may could try to enable AAD sync with other local AD. But, you could wait the response from AAD team.
